Does the K3, like the TS-590, have a user option that defines how the change to CW is handled? Not that I know of. In digital and SSB modes, the dial frequency is the suppressed carrier. In CW mode, it's the actual signal frequency. The K3 takes the desired CW note frequency into account. In RTTY modes, it's the Mark Frequency. When you switch to CW to hear a CW signal that you heard in Digital mode, you'll have to tune it in. The K3 has a front panel button that allows the op to use plus or minus CW offset. 73, Jim K9YC __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] Not Able to hear CW
I just dialed up a local beacon. With it producing about a 1 kHz tone in the tx data mode, I switched the mode on my k3 to CW. the tone dropped down by 600 hz, which is the CW offset/sidetone point I have in my K3. If you hear it on the tx data mode, and you move to CW, adjust the vfo +/- 600-700 hz, and I'm sure you will hear it. The radio is just shifting the offset.

Re: [Elecraft] Not Able to hear CW
Unfortunately not that simple Andy. When switching to CW mode, I tune around to make sure that it’s not a shift causing this . But , no luck.

I have an unusual phenomenon. I can hear a 6 meter beacon on Data mode, but when I switch to CW I get no copy at all.
